Protection Ratings
EN 388
EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring the fabric's abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.
| Standard | Resistance Rating |
| Abrasion Resistance | Level 4 |
| Cut Resistance | N/A |
| Tear Resistance | Level 3 |
| Puncture Resistance | Level 4 |
| ISO Cut Resistance | Level F |
Incredible Level F Cut Protection
Level F cut resistance is the maximum rating awarded under EN 388. It demonstrates a sharp implement would need to generate over an incredible 30 newtons of downward force to cause visible damage to a glove's fabric. This rating is the difference between serious injury and a blade tip or machine part getting jammed in between tight, cut resistant fibres.
Suitable Applications for HexArmor Cut Resistant Gauntlet Gloves
HexArmor Hercules Cut Resistant Gloves are designed specifically for heavy-duty professionals. Their unique characteristics and properties make them ideal for use in the following environments and applications:
Durable SuperFabric Construction
There are some applications that require serious protection. SuperFabric is a cut and abrasion resistant material designed for the hardest hitting environments. Garments that use it are exposed to cutting, tears, punctures, incisions and serious hand injury on a daily basis.
How Does SuperFabric Work to Protect Your Hands?
Serious about heavy-duty protection, SuperFabric was developed in 1996 as a solution for preventing needle and knife incisions. It is the layer that prevents a serrated edge, needle or blade end from breaking through your glove and causing serious injury to your hand.
Extended Protection
Handling concrete, brick and stone generates a tonne of fallout. An extended wrist cuff is ideal for preventing dirt and debris entering a glove at the forearm. It also extends protection a step further, guarding the forearm area against impacts, bumps, scratches, scrapes and other harmful workplace hazards.
Specialised Silicone Patterned Grip
If you handle material day in day out, you need to know that your gloves are going to work with you, not against you. The grip pattern on the palm of HexArmor 400R6E Safety Gloves is raised to increase grip strength and safety. Know that when you need that extra assistance, your gloves are there every step of the way.
Washing Instructions
HexArmor Hercules Level F Gloves are easily washed. For best results, we recommend you turn them inside out and wash them on a cold water cycle to avoid damage to your washer/drier.

What is EN 388?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.
How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.
Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.
